Where the hell have I been?

You're probably not even asking, but I'll tell you anyway.

About 5 years ago, I tried to come back and hang with the 2o2p crowd, but I just didn't end up making the time. WoW primarily had my attention, and the console titles that came out only held my attention for short periods of time. Since the WoW community here on 2o2p was waning, and was likely on a different server/faction than I was playing, I slumped back into my WoW rut. And that's pretty much where I stayed.

History of addiction

While I've been mostly absent from 2o2p as of late, I'm still a slave to that unrelenting addiction that is World of Warcraft. A long while back my 360 RRoD'd. I've been playing enough WoW to not really miss the console (and I have a Wii if I'm dying for a change of pace) so I haven't picked up a new Xbox or gotten mine fixed.

Growing pains at Digg?

  If you're unaware of the social news site digg.com, it's definitely worth checking out.  It's a site where people submit stories that interest them, and other users can "digg" the story, voting it up and possibly becoming more popular and hitting the front page, or "bury" the story, which will lead to less popularity and fewer reads.  It's a great way to access a wide variety of news, videos and pictures from around the web by just visiting one site.

The closing of the one game era

Before the Xbox 360 came out, Xbox Live players played one game: Halo 2. That's not to say that players weren't playing other games, but the one that brought people together (as evidenced by this site) was the second game in Bungie's trilogy. You could count on your friends list being active every night, and your clan smacking down fools in matchmaking or in intra-site clan challenges. It was a simple time, and the gaming was good.

Pay me for advice

Here's an advice column that I read out of the local rag while I was on my lunch today (spotted it because it was next to the comics):

Overwhelmed by gaming goodness

So, after being on a cruise for 2 weeks to Alaska, I have come back to the release of Halo 3.  I've also got a hankering to play some WoW again, but it feels good to playing a new yet familiar game.
